i have take choosen Walt Disney CO. stock ,dated april,25 2020 expiry of May 1,2020. here are the call & put premium of same strike price 5 above & 5 below the current price

The graph- 1 of call premium & strike price is not exactely linear , 4 points are not on linear line osme deviation ois there still we can say as strike price increases above current level the call premium goes on decrease while as strike porice go down from current level the call premium goes on increase., call option of same strike price its premium goes on increase in case of this company as expiry date goes on increase.

the graph-2 of call premium & strike price is also not exactly alinear graph some point are out of line . here we can conclude that as strike price increases put premium also increases & as strike price decreases put premium also decreases. Put option of same strike price its premium goes on increase in case of this company as expiry date goes on increase .
